Sounds very much like the gun licensing requirements we have over here. Completely agree about wild food (meat) being more morally acceptable than farmed food. For our family it's pheasant when in season - my son loves pheasant curry - and occasionally wood pigeon. I've hunted deer and boar in the past but as I don't own a rifle I only hunt as a guest. Here's a pic of a small walked-up shoot we did a few years ago - just three of us and two dogs walking the boundaries on a local estate after the main shoot days had finished. Mine's the dog on the left - she worked her socks off on that day, bless her.

That's quite a feed there Jon. How long will that lot keep you going? She's even got a wild pig in the back of the truck? What are the licensing arrangements for gun ownership in Aus? Presume you also have open & closed seasons for hunting over there, or are they hunted all year round as non-native species?

Ready?? I've already popped 💦

Looking forward to jigging over the reefs to see what I can find. Seems to be a productive method for many different species 🤞

🐶🐶🐶🎣👍🤣

Might be worth trying that out in a groundbait bag for salt species 👍

Nope.

And its salted water for brown trout, which after soaking for 24 hours tasted like... ...mud. It's a substance known as geosmins in their flesh that give that earthy/muddy taste. I've yet to find a way to remove it.

In which case, just edit your second post and delete them.

No double posts as far as I can see, so perhaps our techno-geek @JonC has already take care of it for you Geoff.

Looking good Geoff 👍

They'll even throw in a dose of Covid for free... Personally I wouldn't risk a plane flight for a while. Just my luck to be sat next to someone coughing and wheezing all over me the entire flight 🤧🥺

Cheeky fucker 🤣

🤣 I can only wish for bloody decks just now Geoff

🌈 I admire your optimism...

You were bored!

Well done Geoff. Must have been a big effort to get a boat like that out of the water.

8/10 for that @Hooked1980. You'd have scored higher but the joke's a bit too close to home for me 🤣

Nice looking example. Has a decent Airmar through-hull Xducer too.

But this one is better for that particular purpose I reckon.

Funnily enough, that's very close to what I was thinking 🤣🤣

A well known track in its day but not sure it's aged all that well.

Meh? What's wrong with you man??! 🤣

You might like this one too then.

Talking of memory lanes, how about... and
